I did a manual frugal install to my acer revo nettop pc.
It went straight to the desktop at the correct resolution, using the
nouveau driver I think.
The builtin wireless adapter isn't supported,
Ralink corp. RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe.
I plugged in a linksys rt73 usb wireless adapter and it is working
well.
I installed the devx and kernel source sfs and the Nvidia driver for
the ION chip in this pc, it took an extra reboot and 2nd try to
compile the nvidia driver because the nouveau driver conflicts with
the proprietary nvidia driver, it did successfully compile after doing
that.

Edit after testing with correct cli command
nope that did not help.
I tested to use it prior to deciding timezone and keyboard
and tested it after that restart too and none of that helped.

The only thing that repair it is to edit out from xorg.conf the added
info which is kind of sad because a lot of that should be there and
I should only edit the part that make 1024 x 768 invisible.

But I have no idea how to do that.

In lupu528 it looks like this

But in Slacko that part seems to be missing. Maybe it is another
file I should look in on slacko? I remember vaguely that I did borrow
a xorg.conf file from lupu to use in slacko last time to correct the
"feature" that I don't want to have. 1024 x 600. I want to ahve the

1024 x 768 instead._________________I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Wow, that was a quick update. Frugal installations on my main desktop and my Dell Inspiron Laptop. Everything tested works fine including wifi and wifi printing.

I was able to compile the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-290.10.run after first removing the nouveau driver which is always a problem. Incidentally, sys-info reports that the vesa driver is being used regardless of driver used.

Hope that you will reinstate the ability to chose Numlock state in Personalize Settings.

peeBee,
Thanks for report on b43. I did have an idea to put it in /etc/rc.d/MODULESCONFIG, still may do so if I can't find the real problem (maybe you can try that). I may PM rerwin, he is somewhat of a module expert.
EDIT: the same kernel log from 5.3.1.2 for comparison may be useful.

Billtoo,
Thanks for letting me know the kernel source works

James,
Good nouveau worked for you for a change

pemasu,
scanpci is deprecated. I should remove that code from netsetup.sh. I have had no issue with SNS and Network Wizard in 5.3.1.2

On release i will bump the version to 5.3.3. This is way more than a bugfix release, even more than a 2 point release, but 2 points will do, version numbers, so long as they exist and are in correct order are of little importance.

Ffmpeg will not be updated to keep compatibility with mlt, a dependency of openshot-1.4. I may offer a 0.9x version in PPM.

Seamonkey will be updated, likely 2.7. I will experiment with jemimah's adrive concept (see saluki thread). Also will include a browser installer. Links will likley be the defaulthtmlviewer, it can handle cups!

I seriously dislike pupdialog. No offence Barry, but gtkdialog is already a wrapper. Pupdialog is seriously slow on my lappy. Pupdialog is a wrapper of a wrapper.

We also need a new splash prog for puppy since yaf-splashes demise (with good reason).. I am going to attempt to write one against gtk/gdk using svg images, since techno came up with a neat text2svg script. This will likely not happen soon enough!

If this kernel is ok I will compile a PAE version. All nvidia/ati drivers will be available eventually.

if you have any feature requests NOW is the time! Next will be beta and feature freeze.Last edited by 01micko on Mon 16 Jan 2012, 18:00; edited 1 time in total

It's to do with jwm_tools. Default is 2 level. If fixmenus is ever run it will bork things. Could be a bug in my PPM patch. What pets did you install?
An X restart will bring back 2 level, or better, run this:
